Keeping Tabs on the Codes - Friday, October 04, 2013

Did you know that 4,749 unique sections of code could be affected by bills in 2013? Not only that, but 253 of those sections could be affected by more than one bill!

CapitolTrack has a report called the CA Law Code Index that shows all these code sections, as well as the chapter date, and chapter number of the bill that affects the code.

Create a bill report, and choose to "Sort by" deadline. This is a quick way to see which bills are up against the next deadline, which are further along in the process, and which bills are exempt from deadline rules per Article 4, Section 8(c)(3) of California's Constitution.
